Dear all,
now I reached chapter6.20.
My host is an Aspire one with 4.9.0-4-amd64 and not very fast. But I
want to install LFS on this device finally.
I think about to use another device with with an amd64 processor as
well (Asus) to compile LFS and to shift the final OS to the old Aspire.
Unfortunately I have no free space an the Asus and do not like to change
anything on the LVM partitions.
Can I create a virtual partition (file) with dd and mount it instead of
a "real" partition on the Asus?
Can I copy the actual status on the Aspire to the virtual partition of
the Asus to build the next steps faster?
Hi Axel,
That shouldn't be a problem, but be sure to set the correct ARCH/CPU in
your C(XX)FLAGS to avoid the compiler to use/implement Instructions Sets
on the powerful computer, that isn't available on your target computer.
export CFLAGS="-march=<CPU of Target PC>"
export CXXFLAGS=$CFLAGS
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=LFS_Part.img bs=1M count=20480
$ mkfs.ext4 LFS_Part.img
$ sudo mount -o loop LFS_Part.img /mnt/lfs
Tar/Untar as discussed yesterday :)
